SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 385,714, dated July l0, 1888,

Application filed April 2G, 1888.

Sc1ialNo.271,91/i. (No model.)

To @ZZ whom t may concern,.-

Be it known that I, JAMns INGELLs, a citizen of the United States, residing at A lba, in the county of Antrim and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Ilm provements in Ghurns; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable oth ers skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in churns; and it has for its object to provide a churn which shall be simple and cheap, durable, and very effi cient in operation.

To these ends and to such others as the iuvention may pertain the same consists in the peculiar combinations and in the construction, arrangement, and adaptation of parts, all as more fully hereinafter described, shown in the accompanying drawings, and then particularly pointed out in the appended claim.

The invention is clearly illustrated in ,the accompanying drawings, which, with the letters of reference marked thereon, form a part of this specification, and in which- Figure l is a sectional View of myimproved churn. Fig. 2 is a horizontal section on line fr: :r of Fig. 1, with part-s broken away. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of the dasher and beaters.

Referring now to the details of the drawings by letter, A. designates a churn body, of any suitable material, provided at its upper end with an interior annular flange, o, which forms a rest or support for the cover or top B. Rising from the cover B is the standard C, provided at its upper end with the hori zontal extension i), which may be either integral with the standard or formed separate and rigidly secured thereto, as deemed best. The shaft D has bearings in the extension b and in the disks c g, as shown, and at its lower end carries the dasher or blade c.

E is a bevel-pinion fast on the shaft D just below the extension b.

F isa cross bar below vthe cover, and depending therefrom, one at each side, are the blades or beaters d.

Secured to the cross bar F are the rods c, to the upper ends of which is secured the bevelpinion G, through a hole in which the shaft I) loosely works.

The cover B is provided centrally with an opening in which works the extension g of the disk g. f is a disk above the cover, as shown. Bath of these disks are secured to the rods e and rotate therewith. The shaft D passes loosely through the hole in the crossbar F.

Secured to the inner face of the standard C is the block 7L, formed upon opposite sides with notches fi, in which are secured the arms H. These arms receive between them the shaft D, and at their outer ends are connected by a crosspiece, preferably in the form of a disk, as shown atj, in which is secured the shaft It' of the pinion I. rlhis pinion meshes with the pinions E and G, and is provided with a suitable operating-handle. In the drawings I have shown the handle K constructed and connected as follows: The outer face of the pinion I is formed with a flange or rib, Z, in which is formed a recess, m, in which is fitted the handle, the inner end of which is in the form of a disk loosely embracing the shaft 7i: and tirmly secured to the pinion I. The handle is provided with a suitable knob, a.

P is a stop or collar ou the shaft D above the pinion G, to limit the upward movement of said pinion.

The operation is apparent, and. a detailed description thereof is not thought necessary. Motion being given to the pinion I, the beaters or blades are revolved in opposite directions through the medium of the connections above described.

Having thus described my invention and set forth its merits, what I claim to be new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-u The combination, with the cover and the standard thereon having the horizontal eX- tension b at its upperV end, of the shaft D, having the blade c at its lower end and the pinion -E at its upper end, the crossbar F,

the beaters carried thereby, said cross-bar be 1o.:

ing perforated for the free passage ofthe shaft In testimony whereof I affix my signature in D, the rods rising from said cross-bar, the presence of two witnesses.

disks sleeved to and moving with said rods,

one upon each side of the shaft, the pinion G, JAMES INGELLS. Carried by said rods, and the pinion I, meshing with the pinions E and G and provided Witnesses:
